Election-Driven Energy Efficiency Impacts in the Midwest

Written By: Katie Vrabel

In case you missed it, there was an election last month. While energy efficiency may not rise to the top in terms of “hot button” issues, elected officials can have a significant impact on energy efficiency progression within state, either as it relates to program funding, building code adoption, or other key areas. Our friends at the Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (MEEA) hosted a webinar earlier this month to review the legislative changes and the potential impacts.
